I wonder if anyone out there could enlighten me re the following weirdness. I'm pretty new to JSP and even newer to Crystal Reports so it's likely a newbie mistake.
I have a report (an .rpt file) which contains a chart (all good so far). In Eclipse, I can right click the chart file and use a wizard to generate a jsp file, either a version using jsp tags or using java code snippets. I want the latter, so that I can have a bit more control over the thing.
In the jsp tags version, charts show. In the code snippets version, charts don't show. Everything else is working fine, the correct data is shown etc.
My code looks like this:

If anyone could advise whether anything I'm doing here is completely insane and breaking this thing please let me know!
